Some quick thoughts regarding why it is so important that we approved legislation to create a new Office of the Inspector General to get a handle on the massive fraud problem that has rocked our state:

House Republicans have focused heavily on combating fraud, providing property tax relief, improving school safety, cutting car tab fees, delivering relief for counties, and modernizing government systems. We passed bills addressing each of those priorities this session, including approximately $400 million in tax relief, with $125 million in property tax cuts and $250 million in car tab fee reductions approved over the weekend. Here is more as we reflect on the 2026 session that has now come to a close: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MNHOUSEGOP/bulletins/41801da

House Republicans are spending the weekend advancing policies that produce real benefits for Minnesotans. Our efforts include cutting taxes, lowering everyday costs for families, providing relief from expensive regulations for businesses, and implementing major fraud reforms like Medicaid work requirements and stronger accountability measures. Yesterday, the House passed a Higher Education bill that has some good components but also failed to address some crucial issues, which led me to be a "no" vote. Check out the video for more.

This afternoon, the House passed (on a 127-5 vote) legislation creating an independent Office of the Inspector General that will operate independently with future law enforcement authority. It is not controlled by the Governor nor the AG. Here's a clip of me speaking in support of this bill on the House floor:

It was bad enough that House Democrats blocked common-sense solutions as amendments to help fill the State Grant Program shortfall as the Higher Education Bill passed on Monday. To top it off, House Democrats even voted down an amendment to stop what one of their own members called a Pay to Play action taken by Gov. Tim Walz when he appointed two Regents who had not gone through any of the Legislative process and were his personal buddies.

Samuel Heins donated over $380,000 to democrats according to Minnesota Campaign Finance reports 2009 – 2025 and of that $30,426.02 directly to the Walz for Governor campaign. Joel Bergstrom is in a relationship with Anne O’Connor and they bought a house together in 2023. Ms. O’Connor ran the Governor’s Office while he was out running for Vice-President and was the third-highest paid person in the Governor’s office at the time.

How did this happen? Well, last session House Democrats REFUSED to hold a Joint Legislative Convention to elect four Regents to University of Minnesota, something that has not happened in 20 years. This inaction, allowed the governor to bypass the legislature and hand-pick four Regents.

We offered an amendment to make sure this never happens again, but it failed on a party-line vote in our tied House, with Democrats in universal opposition.
